[IAEP] Show Must Go On - SoaS for the XO-1

A couple of weeks back I bit the bullet and over a couple of evenings
filled out a table for my half a dozen XOs with these fields:

Case head color
Case body color
XO name
XO serial number
Developer key
Security disabled
Build number
OLPC-OS version
Sugar version
Firmware version
Comment

I then updated the firmware / developer key / disable-security on all
and updated the OLPC OS to the latest stable build on all but the two
oldest ones, which I am keeping at 65x for compatibility testing (I
understand there are still a large number in use at this time).

There are plenty of links on laptop.org detailing how to test what you
have, upgrade etc. but no one source. I plan to update the SL wiki
page concerning XOs shortly with an easy-to-follow procedure linking
to the relevant OLPC pages.

thanks

Sean
